From: =?UTF-8?q?Micka=C3=ABl=20Sala=C3=BCn?= mic@linux.microsoft.com Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2020 13:38:49 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] seccomp: Set PF_SUPERPRIV when checking capability MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Replace the use of security_capable(current_cred(), ...) with ns_capable_noaudit() which set PF_SUPERPRIV.
Since commit 98f368e9e263 ("kernel: Add noaudit variant of ns_capable()"), a new ns_capable_noaudit() helper is available. Let's use it!
